NASA has scheduled a short trajectory correction manoeuvre on July 13 to refine the Juno spacecraft's orbit around Jupiter.

Juno successfully entered Jupiter's orbit during a 35-minute engine burn on July 5, after a five-year journey to the king of planets.

The engineers and scientists working on NASA's Juno mission have been busying themselves, getting their newly arrived Jupiter orbiter ready for operations around the largest planetary inhabitant in the solar system.

The spacecraft returned to high-rate communications on July 5 and powered up five science instruments on July 6.

As per the mission plan, the remaining science instruments will be powered up before the end of the month. Juno's science instruments had been turned off in the days leading up to Jupiter orbit insertion.
